Proceed with Caution toward the Self-Driving Car

摘要

I would rather see less driving automation and more active monitoring systems for vehicle parts: engines that are aware of the condition of wear and gunk; hoses and belts with embedded sensors to detect wear and damage; tires that know when they are worn or if they are out of alignment. I would also like to see more technologies built into the roads and highways. Automated traffic flow control. Digital speed limit signs that change with the changes of traffic, and direction signs that can suggest alternate routes.
